question:In a certain country, the income tax rate is 10% on the first 10,000 earned, 20% on the next 40,000 earned, and 30% on any amount above 50,000. How much would someone with an annual income of 70,000 pay in taxes?
answer:To calculate the tax amount, you need to break down the income into the different tax brackets and calculate the tax payable for each bracket: 1. On the first 10,000 earned, the tax rate is 10%, so the tax amount is 1,000 (10% of 10,000). 2. On the next 40,000 earned, the tax rate is 20%, so the tax amount is 8,000 (20% of 40,000). 3. For the remaining 20,000 (which is the income exceeding 50,000), the tax rate is 30%, so the tax amount is 6,000 (30% of 20,000). Now, add up the tax amounts calculated for each bracket: 1,000 (first bracket) + 8,000 (second bracket) + 6,000 (third bracket) = 15,000. So, someone with an annual income of 70,000 would pay 15,000 in taxes., To calculate the total income tax, we need to break down the taxable amounts for each tax bracket. First Bracket: Taxable amount = 10,000 Tax rate = 10% Tax paid = 10,000 * 0.10 = 1,000 Second Bracket: Taxable amount = 40,000 (between 10,000 and 50,000) Tax rate = 20% Tax paid = 40,000 * 0.20 = 8,000 Third Bracket: Taxable amount = 70,000 - 50,000 = 20,000 (above 50,000) Tax rate = 30% Tax paid = 20,000 * 0.30 = 6,000 Now, add up the tax paid in each bracket to get the total income tax: Total income tax = 1,000 + 8,000 + 6,000 = 15,000 So, someone with an annual income of 70,000 would pay 15,000 in income taxes.,To calculate the total tax paid, we need to break down the income into different brackets and apply the corresponding tax rates. First Bracket: Taxable Income: 10,000 Tax Rate: 10% Tax Paid: 10,000 * 0.10 = 1,000 Second Bracket: Taxable Income: 40,000 Tax Rate: 20% Tax Paid: 40,000 * 0.20 = 8,000 Third Bracket: Taxable Income: 70,000 - 50,000 = 20,000 Tax Rate: 30% Tax Paid: 20,000 * 0.30 = 6,000 Now, we add up the taxes paid in each bracket to get the total tax paid: Total Tax Paid = 1,000 + 8,000 + 6,000 = 15,000 So, someone with an annual income of 70,000 would pay 15,000 in taxes.

answer:Upon the vast and wondrous briny deep, Where Neptune's realm in grandeur doth sweep, A Ballad of Ocean, I now shall weave, And with my humble quill, the waters leave. Adrift in this expanse of boundless blue, Beneath the sky so vast, forever new, Cerulean void, an azure tapestry, Doth beckon me to plumb its mystery. Ever shall I sing the songs of seas, Fathoms deep, where ancient leviathans freeze, Gargantuan beasts in shadows dwell, Heralding tales from ocean's swell. Infinite stories held in waves' embrace, Juxtaposed against our fleeting grace, Kaleidoscope, a symphony of hues, Luminous and dark, both truths and news. Mysteries unfathomable abide, Nature's enigma, her secrets, hide, O'erwhelming depths entice the bravest heart, Poseidon's realm, forever to impart. Quelling tempests with a whispered calm, Reacting not to mankind's alarms, Serene and ancient, ever present, Timeless in her strength, most powerful guest. Underneath the moon's ethereal glow, Vast oceans, secrets they bestow, Waves crash down in foamy white crests, Xanadu of Neptune, Poseidon, and the rest. Yearning for discovery, intrepid explorers, Zealously seeking treasures and such plotters, Advance through Neptune's void, seeking fame, Braving the ocean's depths, its wonders to proclaim.,Ah, the ocean, that vast abyss of azure allure. It beckons us with its briny breath, a beacon in the blackness of our boredom. Its ceaseless churn is a canticle to the cosmos, a call to those craving adventure and daring discovery. Every ebb and flow echoes eternity; it's an enigma wrapped in effervescence. Fathomless and foreboding, yet filled with a fragile beauty that flutters like fireflies in the foam. A glistening gem of grandeur, gleaming under the gaze of the golden sun. Hearken now to the haunting hymn of the humpback whale, harmonizing with the hum of the hidden depths. The ocean, an inkwell of intrigue, invites us into its iridescent infinity. Juxtaposed against the jaded world above, it's a jewel box just waiting to be opened. Kaleidoscopic kelp forests keep secrets known only to krakens, while luminescent lanternfish light up the labyrinthine lairs below. Marvel at the myriad mysteries masked by the murky mantle, nautical narratives never heard by man nor beast. Observe the octopus' odd odyssey, outwitting predators with outrageous cunning. Peer into the pulsating panorama, where pufferfish play peek-a-boo among purple polyps. Quirky quahogs quietly quarrel over quaint quarters, their squabbles lost in the quicksilver quietude. Revel in the rhapsody of rainbow reefs, resplendent in their riotous radiance. See the seahorse sway in syncopation with the sea cucumber's slow shimmy. This tableau of teeming life is as tantalizing as it is transient, each tide turning the page on a new tale. Underneath the undulating waves, urchins unite in unexpected unity. Vast vaults of vibrant vegetation veil the voracious viperfish, ever vigilant for its next victim. Witness the waltz of the wandering walrus, weaving through whirlpools with winsome whimsy. The xenophobe may find this xanadu excessive, but for the explorer, it's a xylophone playing the tune of excitement. Yes, my young friend, yonder lies a realm yearning for your youthful curiosity. Zephyrs zigzag across the zenith, whispering tales of zealous mariners who dared to seize the day. So let us set sail, you and I, on this zodiac of dreams. Let us write our own alphabet of adventure, from A to Z, across the endless expanse of the extraordinary ocean.,In days of yore, when sailors brave the briny deep, Their hearts aflutter with anticipation sharp and keen, They venture forth upon the open sea, Where waves of wonderment eternally have reigned. Across the azure expanse in boats dinghy and grand, Our seafarers embark upon this voyage vast and boundless, Yet perilous perils lurk just under the horizon's steadfast sway, As currents coursing, capricious, carve through the watery domain. Befallen by tempests, buffeted by the barren bluster, Our sailors struggle through scourges and storms, With courage coursing, comrades cling to hope eternal, For the love of light, of land faraway, so fervently desired. At dawn's early hour, their dreams awaken, Drifting dreams of distant shores and distant dear ones' embraces, Eagerly expecting the end of this endless expedition, They face fathomless fears that may befall them, lost to memory. Galleons groan beneath gargantuan gusts, Holding hope in hearts heavy with heartache, Inconceivably intense, indelible imagery flashes, As they navigate nightmares and navigate across the ocean's mouth. Journeys joyful but juxtaposed with jaded jests, Their laughter lasting just a brief moment, In quiet contemplation, they collect themselves, For the quest remains relentless, relentless as the rhythm of life's unyielding oceans. Known not to wail or wallow in their woes, Their spirits shine in the storm's fury, Lit by the lucent beams that emanate from the heavens above, Mighty moonbeams mingling in the malacostracan melee below. Odysseys of adventure, of arduous agony, Their souls surrender to the ocean's allure, Perilous paths pave the way for their prayers of passage, Redemption ringing loudly in their restless ears. Seafarers strong, yet hearts shrinking with sadness, Their silent sobs resonate through the thin air, Underneath umbrella skies they yearn, reminisce, Vision veiled by the vaporing vapors of weariness. Wandering weeks wane, weary warriors wander, Xeric landscapes stretch to the horizon's edge, Yelps of joy yodel amidst the yucky yawns of the yawning hungry, Zealous zephyrs zealously zigzag between their ears. And so concludes the tale of these tales untold, My dear friends, remember the ocean's might and majesty, Its eons-old existence echoing in our veins, In its wisdom, we too, brave adventurers, walk to recover and return.
